• Description:
  Mammography is a critical tool in breast cancer screening and secondary prevention, enabling early detection and significantly reducing breast cancer mortality. This literature review assesses the effectiveness of mammography in identifying early-stage tumors, discussing its advantages, limitations, and specific challenges. Additionally, advancements in imaging techniques, such as 3D tomosynthesis, are examined, especially for their enhanced sensitivity in women with dense breast tissue, which reduces structural overlap and improves diagnostic precision. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in mammographic image analysis opens new opportunities, supporting radiologists by automating the detection and classification of potential lesions, thereby increasing screening efficiency and reducing false-positive rates. However, effective implementation of AI requires seamless integration with clinical systems and ongoing research to refine algorithms for diverse clinical needs. Furthermore, legal frameworks are essential to delineate responsibility in AI-supported diagnostics. This review emphasizes the status of breast cancer screening in Poland, where participation rates remain low despite the availability of free screenings. This highlights the need for improved public awareness and accessibility, especially in underserved areas. Overall, the findings underscore the fundamental role of mammography in breast cancer detection, with AI and other technological advancements significantly enhancing diagnostic accuracy while identifying areas for further improvement.
